If rumour about kkoma return to T1 is true, than roster change for T1 seems like inevitable, yes? I mean, kkoma is a Legend and SKT-father, we all know he would be allowed to join the moment he asked, but also being honest, he seems like a bad fit to the CURRENT T1 roster.
kkoma is known for players development, ego shadowing, he likes discipline, patience, hard work, dedication – good things to develop talents and keep them in a peak form for a long time, but this T1 roster seems to enjoy a freedom. They literally three times changed coaching staff in the middle of nowhere just to have more freedom. They dropped Daenny, they dropped Bengi, all – to have freedom, more voice and play what they like to play. The moment this roster stops enjoying playing game, they look for a change. Tom was a perfect T1 head and drafting coach as he just allowed T1 to cook whatever they want to cook and practice crazy things.
Not to mention that kkoma drafting abilities and meta understanding are questioned since 2017.
With all respect to kkoma, decision to let him back indicates only one thing: T1 will shake roster and most probably go for some “cheaper” rookies/young players and they need kkoma to help them to repeat the exercise. Otherwise, I personally don’t see a reason to bring him now in face of Tom who just won Worlds.
